Tommy Armour 303 Milled Series Habanero Putter

The Habanero is the blade of the 303 Milled Series that keeps a double bend neck, an unusual pairing and the entire point of the club. You get the compact traditional outline of a blade at address together with the offset and near-zero head rotation that a double bend produces, milled from 303 stainless so the strike stays firm and true across the face. Most blades reward a stroke that opens and closes. This one doesn't.

It comes at 34 or 35 inches, wearing a Deep Etch grip from Lamkin and a satin brushed head that stays calm in flat afternoon light. If your putter swings on a noticeable arc, the Trinidad is the blade to try instead, since its strong toe hang works with rotation instead of resisting it. Should you want a larger shape with this same quiet neck behaviour, the Datil steps up in size. Pick the Habanero when you love a blade over the ball but you're a straight-line putter underneath.
